Fake Friends - Real Life Better Lyrics

I used to rap about the things I thought that I knew
That was way back then when I was part of a group
In them soundproof days boy we thought we was cooI
I hope nothing but the best for every one of them dudes
Part me wish it did but it didn't work out
And I ain't talking about the group that's for the mother my child
Whats different between me and you really starting to show
Sometimes them comfort zones are people you gotta outgrow
Think I found myself when I made me co parent
Got joint custody so he'll always have both parents
Had Son an that really gave life a new perspective
Got a daughter on the way now I'm over protective
As a collective we really misconstrued the message
Cause chasing clout matters more then even being respected
Make sure them kids don't lose integrity over acceptance
Real life is better than trying to live for others perceptions
Now everything that I know ain't what I thought that knew
Cause every look like the same monkey See monkey do
They'll believe any caption even if ain't true you
Keeping up with so n so just so they keep up with you
Images by the minute we lacking the patience
For you actually make it want you want the gratification
This ain't a race so set a pace and then simply maintain
If you ask me how I been I can't even complain
Conversations with my wife thats regular night
What look better with baby the beige or the white
There's more to life than gettin likes maybe one day you'll get it
Cant really capture the moments to busy living in it
Took break from writing records to give you these bars
This shit been gettin outta hand man it's going to far
You don't even know who I am like it better that way
W living in real life like every day
